FAQs

HOW CAN STREET VIEW | TRUSTED HELP MY BUSINESS?

When potential customers search for your business by name on Google Maps, they will see the images (labelled Street View and 360s) displayed under the business' info. These panoramic images can also be found from Google Search and give customers a better sense of the layout, decor and beauty of your business interior. Using easy-to-use html snippets, you can also link to these images from your own business website, attracting potential customers who visit your website too.


WHAT IS SEE INSIDE OHIO'S RELATIONSHIP WITH GOOGLE?

See Inside Ohio is what's called a "Street View Trusted Photographer". We are independent contractors who have been trained and certified by Google to produce high quality panoramic images. We're able to publish these panoramic virtual tours directly to your listing on Google, making this "hands-off" process simple and easy for the business.


WHAT IS THE COST TO GET MY BUSINESS PHOTOGRAPHED?

Our pricing is a one-time cost, starting at $300 for 5 panoramas (360 views). We charge $50 per panorama after the initial 5. Think of a panorama as a step into a different spot in your business where the user can virtual look around. We typically space panoramas 5-10 feet apart to give customers the natural feel of moving through your space.


DO I OWN THE PHOTOGRAPHS TAKEN BY A TRUSTED PHOTOGRAPHER?

Yes, you will own the photos taken by See Inside Ohio once you have paid for this service and the shoot is completed. 


WHAT IS THE PROCESS FOR GETTING THIS GOOGLE VIRTUAL TOUR?

The process is simple:

1. We schedule a time to shoot - this is best during slow times.

2. The photo shoot typically takes around an hour or less and involves us setting up the camera in various spots to capture the 360 images.

3. We create the tour/connect the 360s and attach it to your Google Maps listing. The tour goes live 1-2 weeks from the shoot, at which time we will email you a direct link to the tour.
